For some reason, I like this quote from Bronson Arroyo, about Mike Leake:
“I didn’t even know his name when I told Dusty Baker I thought that kid would be pretty good,†Arroyo said. “I didn’t know anything about him and I hadn’t seen him throw a bullpen, nothing. There was something about the way he walked around here.â€Â
We’ve already heard some stories about the way Mike Leake walks around the clubhouse. Perhaps that’s why Arroyo’s quote amused me so.
